What changes the price of house rewiring

House rewiring starts from £2,400. That starting price buys a typical three bedroom house with the old cables taken out, new circuits run, and the certificate issued when the work is finished.

  • Larger houses, extra circuits, or work that has to go through plastered walls or loft insulation cost more than the starting figure.
  • The written quote lists the rooms and circuits we will cover before we book a start date.
  • NAPIT registration covers the notifiable parts of a rewire, including the certificate at the end.

“Ten years on Colchester housing stock and I have seen most of it: terraces where the lighting circuit has been extended once too often, boards fitted before RCDs were standard, new builds with sockets nowhere near the kitchen. I check the earthing, the bonding and whether the supply will carry another load before I price anything, because the age of a house settles nothing on its own.”
